But the fact that he won't freaking stop is another insight into human nature, and another lesson he can teach us. KNOW WHEN TO QUIT! I've met a lot of people who didn't know when to quit. Either they're in denial, hopelessly optimistic, or they just refuse to accept it.
The fact that you're trying to figure out human nature from a character from an '80s Kids Show, is just...sad.
There was no philosophic/social commentary in there. You're looking WAY too deeply into it.
You are starting to sound a bit patronizing about a show that eventually exploded into a worldwide fandom consisting of kids and adult as well as a PG-13 movie in the making!
This is sci-fi stuff and good science fiction characters keep getting new info added to them, making them more and more interesting and yes, MORE multi-layered over the years - both by the creators and fans alike. That is what made characters like Starscream so fun and memorable.

Thank you, Screambug. I agree totally.
I realize fully this was just a kid's show, but you must realize something Shadowman, this show was writen by human beings. And if the past has taught us anything, it is that from Beowulf to Star Wars, writers put parts of themselves into their stories and charachters. Starscream is no exception to this rule.
Read the Death of Arthur, by Mallory, and you will start to understand a work of fiction that was infulenced by those who wrote it and their lives.
